Gallery Member Spotlight - Zenonas

In a brand new series, we cast the spotlight on members of
the PhotographyBLOG
Gallery and ask them about their photography. The seventh
member to sit in the interview chair is Zenonas.

What
do you enjoy most about the Gallery?

I enjoy that I can to see the works of colleagues, to keep
company with them, to learn something from masters, to take
part in contents and pleasantly to spend time.

Do you think being a Gallery member has
helped improve your photography?

Yes, I do. I think it is very well to take part in Gallery
work. I see that my works now are better than 2 years ago.

Nature
is obviously your favourite topic - what is it that interests
you so much?

I was surprised when I knew from you that nature is obviously
my favorite topic. But it is nice to hear it. Maybe it is
just as you say because I know nature very bad. Nature is
great, nice, powerful...we all are from nature. Sometimes
some shots are successful. Usually I don' t know in what topic
I will work tomorrow - portrait, landscape or still life or
I will not take no one picture. It is very bad but I am such
a man.

What
kind of equipment do use now, and what did you start with?

My equipment is not very good but I like my Minolta Dimage
Z1. I want to buy Canon EOS 350D or Nikon D70. I started off
with Russian camera 6x6cm Liubitel when I was 7 or 8 years
old, after that my cameras were Zenit, Kijev, Saliut, Practica,
Canon T70, Pentax MZ50, Canon Digital Ixus...

Have you sold any of your Gallery photographs?

Yes, I have sold about 10 - 15 photos in Art Gallery in my
town. Large majority of works are in my gallery in PhotographyBLOG.
The prices are not high because our people are not very rich.
As I remember the highest sale was about 20 euro. It was my
photo A
LITTLE OF RED from my gallery.

What
is the one piece of advice that you would give to other budding
photographers?

I think my advice is very short: to be one's own, to work
not as all but to hear all!
